Be Like Him

I’m sorry, honey, I don’t normally run this late

And I can tell by your “It’s OK” that it ain’t OK

But I don’t blame you for jumping to conclusions

Assuming that I’m doin’ what he did when he left you

Sittin’ all alone there with no explanation

That look on your face says that I need to say this

 

I ain’t ever gonna be like him

I’ll never tell you lies like him

I’ll never leave you sittin’ all alone

Staring at your phone

Through mascara running

Don’t know what went wrong

And I’ll be damned if I let

You think that I would do you like that

So baby let me take you and hold you and show you

That I ain’t like him

And I ain’t ever gonna be like him

 

Yeah I know we just got going and it’s moving fast

And I don’t where this is headed but I love what we have

And it’s too early to promise you forever but I promise I won’t ever

​

I ain’t ever gonna be like him

I’ll never tell you lies like him

I’ll never leave you sittin’ all alone

Staring at your phone

Through mascara running

Don’t know what went wrong

And I’ll be damned if I let

You think that I would do you like that

So baby let me take you and hold you and show you

That I ain’t like him

And I ain’t ever gonna be like him

 

Never gonna, never never gonna, never gonna

Make you feel like you don’t matter, cause you do

Girl I’m telling you, yeah I swear to you

 

No, No, I’m never gonna be like him
